As we started working the yard in preparation for winter I noticed the wonderful colors and shapes of the seed pods of what I believe is a bluestar. This plant is located right next to our driveway and will soon be under a snowbank. It is on my to do list to move it into our official Monarch Watch garden habitat.
Since the shoveling and snow blowing will soon begin. I decided to cut the seed pods and dry them. At the time they were a deep purple but the drying process dried them out. I added in some grass to the mix as well. Since the color faded I did add just a little bit of color back in with a light spray of spray paint.
